FOR THE FARM AND HOME.
Hot Batti tor Inaect*.
A German method for destroying
thrips and red spiders is to have a large
vessel filled with clean hot water at a
temperature of 133 degrees. The infested
plants are dipped into the water
for the space of four seconds when
the insects will be killed, and no
damage result to the plants; it is best
not to continue the immersion longer
than the time noted. If afterwards a
few insects appear that have developed
since the operation, it may be repeated.
The temperature of the water should
be watched and not allowed to fall
below 122 degrees. It is said that
even young shoots and flower buds
will not suffer in the least from this
treatment.?
IIow to Fred Meal to Cows.
It is a matter of some importance,
says a writer in the Neio Enyl'iud
Farmer, how meal is fed to cows.
Owing to the peculiar structure of the
cow's digestive organs, when meal is
fed alone, instead of going into the
first stomach where the hay goes and
remaining until it is remasticated, it
goes directly to the third and thonre to
the fourth stomach. The consequence
is that the meal is not subjected to the
softening process which the hay
undergoes, and which would render it
more easily digestible. "Where considerable
meal is fed a portion of it is
liable to be imperfectly digested and
thus occasions loss. 35v wetting the
meal and hay and mixing them together
before feeding, the meal will be eaten
along with the hay and will be subjected
to the whole digestive process.
It is believed that by thus feeding the
cows, more meal can be digested without
disturbance of the digestive organs,
and, consequently more milk obtained
than by feeding the milk separately.
This is a matter worthy the consideration
of those who feed dairy cows.
How Butter Mny be Spoiled.
fi/vul buffer m;?v ho smnilpri in
churning. Over-churning ruins the
texture and changes the proper waxiness
to a disagreeable, sickly greasiness.
This is the more easily done in
a churn with dashes, which press the
butter against the sides of the churn
and squeeze and rub it until it is
spoiled. Too long churning spoils the
quality by the oxidation of the butter,
and the premature formation of strong
flavored acids in it, the full presence of
which we call rancidity. It may be
spoiled at too high a temperature, by
which it is made soft iinc^il|^J|^r

reaches the churn by keeping it long,
or, what is practically the same, by
keeping it in too warm a place; 50 degrees
is about the right temperature if
the cream is kept a week; if it is kept
at 62 degrees three days is long
enough. \\ mte specKS are proauceu
in butter by overchurning or by having
the cream too sour. Either of these
falts produces curd in the mill$, and
the small flakes of this cannot be
washed out of the butter. So wil' the
use of salt containing specks of lime
which unite with the butter and form
insoluble lime soap. "White specks are
covered up to a large extent by using
good coloring, which is made of oil as
'the solvent. But this use of coloring
being used to disguise a fault and to
add an undeserved virtue is worthy
of denunciation.?American Dairyman.
Budding and (irnftinit.
An address read by A. F. Barron
before the North of Scotland horticultural
society, is published in the
London - Garden, occupying several
columns. It contains a statement of
many interesting facts, but some of its
statements, not being of universal
application, may be modified. One of
these is that "in strong calcareous soils
dwarf stocks for fruit trees do not
succeed." In this country we have
never had better success with dwarfs
than on strong calcareous soils, good
cultivation being given. Another is
that "peaches worked on the plum are
far more hardy and vigorous." "We
find otherwise. They grow slower on
the plum, and so far as this retarded
growth exists, with its earlier ripening
of wood, the trees are slightly hardier,
precisely the same as when the growth
is reduced on poor soils or in uncultivated
ground. Again, "a pear may be
grafted on the apple, but does not live
beyond a year or so." Some pears will
live for several years; we have seen
the old summer Bonchretien some
twelve years or more grafted on a
Spitzenburg apple, bearing well, and
some other sorts several years. The
same writer further states that a
gardener grafted a certain pear on a
common hawthorn, and "the fruit was
very similar to haws." Obviously, he
mistook a shoot closely below the point
of union for one above it; or else inserted
by mistake one of the shoots he
had just trimmed from the hawthorn"We
have known both these mistakes
committed by men usually careful.?
Cultivator.
A Sew r?e for Sawdust
A writer to the Home and Farm,
Kentucky, makes mention of the use
of sawdust in planting potatoes, and
asserts that the product Where sawdust
was used was twice as great as where
none was used, and larger and
smoother. It was not stated whether
the sawdust was used as ;in absorbent,
was mixed with manure, or was usel
as it originally came from the 6aw,
which would make considerable difference.
Neither was it stated how much
was used in the hill, nor whether the
sawdust was from hard or soft wood,
all of which are very important considerations.
But it is hardly probable
that this article in its native state will
be used very extensively as a fertilizer
until more is known about it, although
if as stated, the yield of potatoes can
be doubled by its use, at the present
time, when there are so many portable
mills at work in the general destruction
of the forests of New England,
and sawdust is accumulating in quantities,
if it can be utilized as profitably,
it certainly should be done.
"Within a few years farmers in
Columbia, Ct., have been in the
habit of carting from a permanent
saw-mill the sawdust that accumulated.
using it as .an absorbent and for
bedding purposes, but no claim has
ever been made, nor has it been suggested,
that of itself it possessed any
agricultural value further than its
absorptive power, but that it exerted
a remarkably beneficial mechanical
effect upon the manure with which it
was incorporated, so that it very much
aided its disintegration or pulverization,
a thing that is always desirable.
Sawdust is a substance that is useful
to the farmer in the office it performs
as an absorbent and disintegrator, and
also in the use that is so satisfactorily
made of it for packing around the ice
of an ice house,but its further use has
not yet been satisfactory proved.
Taking Tea with the Japanese.
Says a traveler: "The great peculiarity
of this tea drinking ceremony consists
in the exactness with which everything
is done. A spoon, cup, or whatever
is handled, has to be taken hold of
in a particular way, set down in a particular
place, and touched in a particular
part, and everything is done with
the same strange precision. What I
saw was part of the ceremony of 'thin
tea drinking,' and part of the ceremony
of 'thick tea-drinking,' but the whole
is simply a lesson in those laws of
politeness which were formerly so
rigidly exacted in every mansion and
on every state occasion; and which
are still largely kept up in the houses
of the old aristocracy. Originally, the
ceremony was of a secret character, and
no servant entered the house in which
it took place?the master kindling the
fire: boilimr the water, making the tea,
5^!, in short, doing everything for the
-gueste; but in later years it has become
a mere ceremony of an extremely fashionable
character. One or two things
in this service struck me as especially
strange. Thus, both host and guests
"^ut-irrrom the timo th?y entered the
building till the time they left it; and
even when the master had to go to a
little back room to fetch water, cups
or whatever else he might require, he
shuftled on his kness to the slide which
served as a door, and then, having
opened it, shuftled through the opening
till he was well on the other side, when
he rose to his feet; but this he must
not do while in the presence of his
guests. The chief guest, moreover, is
the spokesman for the company, and
no word is uttered save by the chief
guest or host during the service, be it
ever so long. The chief guest also demands
everything?thus he asks for
tea and refreshments; but the particu.
lar moment at which each request, has
to be made is arranged by the code of
etiquette. "At opportune moments the
chief guest also asks if he may look at
the tea-caddy, a spoon, a bowl, or the teapot.
Receiving the necessary permission,
he shuffles on his knees to the
place where the object demanded is,
takes it, bows his forehead to the
ground, then rising, touches his forehead
with the object received, and
begins to examine it. Looking at the

who made it; then opening it and
smelling the tea, what tea costs per
pound; after which inquiries ho passes
it to the next guest, and makes a remark
to the host which should, if possible,
be at the same time a compliment
and a pun. After each guest has
duly inspected the object, the chief
guest shuflles again across the floor,
and returns it to its place. Object

returned in the same manner."
Prophecies for the Crednlons.
Hardly had people recovered from
the nerve-shattering soothsaying of
Mother i>hipton when the weird words
of wind-compelling "Wiggins is ^ well
rubbed from recollection, two ancient
prophecies have been unearthed for
the present year. One is from the
writings of Nostradamus, a French
astrologer of the sixteenth century,
which may be thus rendered :
"In eighteen hundred and eighty-three,
When woods in vernal green shall be,
Against misl'orlune and mischance
A lame man shall protect our France."
The Cointe de Chambord is lame,
and may be taken to represent the
"boiteaux" or "boiteux."
The second blood-curdler is :
"When Esster falls in our Lady's lap
To England shall come a great mishap."
Xow, Easter Sunday this year fell,
for the first time in about a hundred
years, on "Ladv Day," March 15.
"We now manufacture another
prophecy :
When in one week fall Sundays two,

TOPICS OF THE DAY.
It is stated that the state chemist of
CJeorgia has found by analysis that one
bushel of sweet potatoes contains half
v> much nutrition as a bushel of corn,
two bushels of potatoes equaling one
bushel of corn, for fat producing purposes.
If this is correct, it is important,

How does it feel to be in an earthquake?
We prefer to take our knowledge
of such phenomena at secondhand.
Horace I). Warner, writing
in one of the magazines, regarding his
experience in the much shaken South
American city of Caracas, says that in
passing through an earthquake one
feels very much as if he were by one
or two rapid jerks hauled to the summit
of a declivity and then as unceremoniously
tumbled down the opposite
side.
A deficient wheat harvest in the
United Kingdom is now inevitable.
So great, however, have been the imports
of foreign wheat to meet this deficiency
that the surplus supply of domestic
and imported wheat and flour

bushels, ;is agiiinst 10,000,000 or

shortage in the European grain crops
of this summer will, however, make a
fair market for all the remaining surplus
of breadstuff's in the United
States.
The gold hunters are turning their
faces toward Alaska in a mass, and a
movement that way has been begun
which is said to threaten to become a
stampede. A party of twenty of the
oldest miners of the gulch left Deadwood
equipped by a pool of $20,000
that was raised among the business
men of the city in one afternoon. Letters
from Chicago report a hegira from
that state also, while the papers of
Colorado, Arizona, Montana and California
indicate that numbers are leaving
from those localities.
"Washington daily papers contain advertisements
offering various percentages
and bonuses for official appointments.
One young lady is willing to
give $150 for a clerkship paying $60 a
month. Others offer ten per cent, of
the salary, and others as much as 33J
per cent. The number of these advertisements
illustrates the struggle
for existence carried on at the national
capital; but the steadiness with
which they are published shows that
the system of office-brokerage in the
departments has not been suppressed.
There are eighty banks other than
savings banks in New York and
Brooklyn, seventy-one insurance companies,
eleven trust companies, fifteen
gas companies. One bank has its
stock quoted at 2105 or 2000 per cent,
premium because it never yielded to
any panic; another has been as high
as 800 during the year, and a third
4-50. A few are never quoted and
some are almost unknown, but are in
addition to the number given. The
bank so far up in the scale of prices
has a small capital. One bank with
five millions capital is quoted as high
as 150.
A correspondent writes that out in
the wilderness beyond Cheyenne,Wyoming,
dwells a hermit whose business
it is to take care of relays of horses
for the stage. Nothing grows nor is
water to be found for miles and miles
around his desolate cabin, and yet he
endeavors to make life cheerful. His
humor expresses itself in the following
illuminated signs posted conspicuously
on his shanty: "Hotel de la
Starvation," "Fifteen miles to water,"
"Twenty-five miles to wood," "Seven
inches to perdition," "Wanted?A neat
and tidy girl to do general housework."
This man never sees any living being

dashes into sight, and yet he is jovial

One of the characteristics of the
Cte Indians is their abhorrence of al*
objects which might serve to remind
them of acts of violence and death
among themselves. Mr. Itichard Sylvester,
the disbursing ofllcer of the
Ute commission, has lately mentioned
two instances of this trait, one of
them impressive and the other ridiculous.
When they had buried their second
chief, Waro, who recently died of
pneumonia, they shot his ponies over
his grave, burned his tepee and cast
into the flames every object that had
been identified with him. A few days
before this the head chief, Sapevanaro,
who is opposed to education, had a dis.
pute with a member of the tribe who
wished to send his children to school.
Finally, when arguments had failed,
thp nhipf spizprl a nil art tanttle of ink
and broke it over his opponent's head,
much to the detriment of that organ
and of the walls apd furniture of the
room. Thereupon the rest of the Indians
in great dismay set to work at
removing the evidence of the conflictand
whatever could not be completely
cleansed was destroyed. Finally only
a stained map remained, and the Utes
were determined to burn that al3o, but
as it was the ojil* one at the agency
the officers ir fered, at which the
superstitious creatures bitterly complained.

"Run up and tell her to come down

"Oh, but she hasn't got on;her ever)

her new brown silk dress, 'cause she
expected Miss Dimmond to-day. Miss
Diminond always comes over here to
show off her nice things, and ma does
not mean to get left. "When ma saw

and I guess she was mad about something.
Ma said if you saw her new

poor heathen who don't have silk, and
you'd ask her for more money to buy

"Why, you wicked little girl, what
do you want of a heathen doll ?" inquired
the missionary.
"So folks would send her lots of nice
things to wear, and feel sorry to have
her going about naked. Then she'd
have'hair to frizz, and I want a doll
with truly hair and eyes that roll up.

she didn't want you to think she was

needed a muff worse than the queen of

the natives'd be sorry they were such

Just then the freckled-faced little

kissed the missionary lady on the
cheek and said she was delighted to
see her, and they proceeded to have a
real sociable chat. The little girl's

right over to Miss Dimmond's and say
such ill-natured things as she did, and

that he has obtained information that
to perform his feat it will not be necessary

sufferings were very severe from the excruciating pains
in my back, and my legs were Tory badly swollen, st

caused by the rheumatism. Airiondof mine who called

he knew of the wondorfnl cares of several parties who
had taken this medicine, in caeca which Bcomed very

and began to take it as directed, and before I had finished
taking one bottle the improvement in me was
great, and it continued constantly, so that after I had
taken less than three bottles I was able to resnmo ray

of my limbs has disappeared, and the laraoness and
pains in my back ar j gono, all gone. For all of which,

~ That Tired Feeling
There is no Infirmity so oppressive anil burdensome to
tho human mind as that tired feeling of which invalids
complain on the approach of serious disorder. The de.
nmssioTi and dpannndenev of Bnirit Attending thla state
are immeasurable. The lassitude, languor and debility
peculiar to this condition are wholly overcome by taking
Hood's Sarsaparilla. It purifies, vitalizes and enriches
the blood, invigorates the nervous system, and imparts
now life and enorgy to all tho functions of the body.
A lady tells us '' the first bottle has done my daughter
a great deal of good; her food does not distress her now,
nor does she suffer from that extreme tired feeling
which she did beforo talcing
Hood's Sarsaparilla
A second bottlo effected a cure." A prominent business
man remarks: "'In the spring my wife got all run down
and conld not oat anything. I saw a pile of Hood's
Sarsaparilla In the window of an apothecary, and I get
a bottlo. After taking it a week she had a rousing
appetite. She took three bottles, and it was the best
throe dollars I over Invested."
